If our choice does not rest on a solid foundation
We just have to say no or make a modification

 


 
Choices and Decisions
 
"Lie" and "falsehood" have no voice.
Hold on tight to your freedom of choice
Neutralize your selfishness and pride.
Let your duty towards yourself decide
Admit, shortcomings, error, and weakness
Are tied to our character and uniqueness.
It is never too late to change direction,
To revise and modify choice and rejection
Crossing the desert on a sick camel is not wise
The risk is big; ashamed no one can advise
If we realize that we made a wrong decision
If we follow a path against our will and vision.
If our choice does not rest on a solid foundation
We just have to say no, or make a modification.
Every decision should be only your own
As for sure it will spare you some moan.

Great poem, such wise words and so true, God bless. Baz

"Choices and Decisions" strikes ontologic thoughts, and inspires social and political awareness.

It seems that the first line needs a revision. Thought is not fully readable there.

In respect,

Words of wisdom...it is okay to take the sick camel back when we are only part-way to our destination, and trade it for a healthy one...and it is okay to change our destination too!

I will chose truth, not because I am pure of heart (God forbid!) which I am not, but because I was born into falsehood and learned all the tricks in the book there is. So, my only choice will be truth, because I still learning what is all about.

We make choices and decisions everyday, and sometimes those choices are negative and sometimes postive, but we live with the ramifcaitons of our negative choices, our choices can not be wiped away, except by the one who gave us the very breath of life, well done, this one got me to thinking
